Windows 7: Striker 7.1 Driver installation issue

I just purchased the HT Omega Striker 7.1 sound card and can not get the Windows 7 drivers (s81740v.zip) to install. The error comes up as "Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\Norm\Downloads\Striker 7.1 drivers\Program\Cmeauvist64.exe"

I tried dornif's old solution to fix the problem by copying the \Program\Cmeauvist64.exe from the installation disk and that actually got the install to start but now it says "Please plug-in HT Omega Striker7.1 device!" and deleting the HsMgr.exe, but I don't have the HsMgr.exe on my computer.
So while waiting for Omega support to get back to me I tried installing the drivers from the disk, under Vista compatibility mode. That helped install the drivers (Vista drivers) and I now have sound but when I try to open the the Xear 3D it locks up my computer.

Also it seems as if the (s81740v.zip) drivers are missing some files, ie Progam folder and Software folder from what I take from dornif's post.

Hello eviltwin, it seems im having the same problem as you even though i updated my bios and tried all the solutions concerning hsmgr, with no success. Did you find a solution to our problem?

yes im running win7 64 bit, what i dont understand is that everything was working fine until my graphics card broke and i had to change it, since then ive been trying to re=install my driver since it wasnt working no more and it keep telling me to plug in the device. In my device manager, it tells me that i have a high definition audio device but i cant update the driver to the correct ht omega striker 7.1 driver...

I used to have a Striker 7.1 card installed. I ran into some install problems but HT Omega tech support gave me the needed instructions to get it going. I don't have the Striker 7.1 currently installed and didn't keep the tech support instructions.

Another HT Omega Striker 7.1 ProblemAfter building my current system and getting frustrated that Realtek wasn't producing any passable sound for my 5.1 speakers, I decided to pick up a soundcard and found the Striker 7.1 from HT Omega had great reviews.
I installed the W7 drivers from their site and had beautiful sound for about a...
